《Helena's Plane》A Poll and Editing
Advertisement
Heya,
first, thanks for following the story so far. I might repeat myself, but I'm doing this only for fun, and just seeing that people actually seem to read the stuff I come up with adds to this.
The poll I will be adding to this post is mostly to get a better feeling for what others might like and I won't promise to stick to the results. Please vote anyway.
At the end of the post you find more details on what I thought when deciding on the poll's options.
The second part is on the topic of editing the chapters I have released so far.
I have written it down as I thought it up and released nearly all of the chapters without spending much checking for errors. That means there are a lot of typos, missing words, repeated phrases and the like. Basically a cringe-fest.
Over the next few days I will go through the chapters and try to get rid of most of those avoidable things. I might change a few paragraphs, but names, people, events and such things will stay the same. There won't be a need to go back and re-read it once I'm done. Just don't expect a lot of new content over the next few days.
Option A: You want more details! Long monologues, more information regarding the skills, a detailed character sheet every second chapter, even if nothing much has changed. The combat log should be even longer and you want a detailed description of every fight against every snake.
Option B: The boring option. You are fine with the progression speed so far. You can expect a bit more details regarding the locations though.
Option C: You are OK with slow progression, but a bit more stuff happening would be good. More dialogues could be summed up in short paragraphs just giving the important content. Locations can be briefly described and it would be better to wrap up fights without telling how the MC defeated each enemy.

Option D: You just want a montage. (random examples coming up, not spoilers: ) A year of studying at the magic academy in two chapters? More than enough! Building an impregnable settlement from scratch in a few sentences? Yes! Meeting new companions every other chapter and moving on without any tedious backstory? Just naming them "Cleric A" and "Fallen Knight B" would be OK with you!
Option E: more of a joke option, but feel free to choose it.
Well, thats about it. As always, feel free to just reply to the threat with your thoughts or send me a message.

Love, Napalm & Homicidal Fairies
When Nasilain started traveling between worlds, she hadn’t expected to get caught by a police officer. Nasilain: Traveling between worlds always filled Nasilain with dread. All those men with their friendly smiles and hundreds of questions. What was the last movie she watched? What music did she like? What country was she from? If Nasilain could use magic in this world, she would’ve blocked the flow of calcium ions in their jaw muscles just to shut them up. The scientific knowledge she could find on the internet using the free Wi-Fi in one of the local coffee shops forced her to tolerate the occasional interrogation. But even hipsters were better than Seth, the beefy police officer that caught her teleporting. Apparently, she wasn’t allowed to lie to him, which was fine as long as he didn’t ask about the clone. Seth: Seth had seen his share of bad luck. On normal days, it manifested as a shoulder injury that got him discharged from his SEAL team or wounding a civilian while on the police force. But landing in a parallel dimension with elves in neon green pants, a cute mad scientist with magical abilities, and swarms of carnivorous fairies? That was a first. At least Nasilain promised not to use her magic to split atoms. Content warning: This book DOES NOT contain zombie fairies. Everything else is fair game though.

Door 42
A first person account of an unplanned trip to a secret moon base, where I make new and interesting friends, reopen the moon's most amazing backalley bar, and rediscover the long forgotten secrets of lunar land speed racing and the moon's first hot rod club... and then some. Soon to be a campy, direct to DVD B-movie featuring Bruce Campbell as "Al"! (No, not really... but it sounds good in my head.) I write a better story than a synopsis, I promise.
